Will I need to pay an excess fee on a claim if I have a car warranty?

Car warranties often carry an “excess” that you will need to pay, each time you make a claim. Contributing to a repair can help to reduce the price of your warranty policy.

The amount you pay can vary significantly from one provider to another and can ultimately determine whether the policy is worth having. For example, a cheap warranty policy that requires you to pay the first £250 of any claim is unlikely to offer you much financial benefit.

A better approach is to look for a policy that provides good cover at an affordable price, with a low excess of £50 or less.

When you purchase a Halfords | MotorEasy warranty you are given the option of paying a zero excess, a £25 excess, or a £50 excess. By choosing either of the latter two options, you can reduce the price of your warranty policy.
